OVERVIEW
This course will present advanced access, cleaning and shaping principles.
Treatment philosophies, strategies, and techniques were developed solely
to address the issues of providing molar root canal therapy (RCT),
while maintaining the mechanical and biological objective of RCT. Whether
a seasoned practitioner or just expanding your dental services, your
growth to provide more predictable and profitable molar RCT may be
as simple as applying these key concepts; concepts readily transferable
to the treatment of single rooted teeth. Dr. Clement also believes
that to take full advantage of Ni-Ti rotary instrumentation, one must
apply these same advanced endodontic techniques and principles.
